Heroku seems great, but most non-trivial applications require authentication, and conventional authentication schemes require an SSL connection, and it's impossible to get https://your_app_name.com
(you can only get https://your_app_name.heroku.com
).
So if you're using Heroku, is it that:
- You don't mind directing users to another domain (seems pretty bad)
- You don't mind foregoing SSL for authentication (seems really bad)
- Your app doesn't require authentication
Edit: In your answer, please select one of the above options.
